Expected score: Khabarovsk 2-1 Vladivostok
Khabarovsk hosts Vladivostok in a KHL matchup on 25 October 2026, with the home side looking to build on their stronger league position. Khabarovsk sit sixth with 19 points from 17 games, while Vladivostok occupy eighth place on 17 points. Both teams have shown inconsistency this season, but the hosts carry the edge in the standings and recent performances.
Team form
Khabarovsk
Khabarovsk's form has been mixed. They opened their last five games with three consecutive defeats—losing 0-2 to CSKA Moscow, 1-4 to Cherepovets, and 0-2 to Novosibirsk—before bouncing back with victories over Dynamo Moscow (4-0) and Barys Astana (3-1). Across these five matches, they scored 8 goals and conceded 9, averaging 1.6 per game offensively and 1.8 defensively. The 4-0 shutout win over Dynamo Moscow demonstrated their attacking potential, but the earlier heavy defeats highlight defensive vulnerabilities.
Vladivostok
Vladivostok's recent record is similarly patchy. They won 4-2 at CSKA Moscow and 2-1 at SKA-VMF St. Petersburg in their last five outings, but suffered three losses—1-2 to Niznekamsk, 0-2 to Bars Kazan, and 0-3 to SKA St. Petersburg. Over this span, they scored 7 goals and conceded 10, averaging 1.4 offensively and 2.0 defensively. The visitors' leaky defence is a concern, particularly on the road, where they have struggled to contain opposition attacks.
Head-to-head
No head-to-head history is available between these two sides, so this matchup offers no direct precedent to draw upon.
Key factors
Khabarovsk's home advantage is significant in the KHL, and their superior league position reflects a season-long edge over Vladivostok. The hosts have also demonstrated greater attacking punch in recent weeks, particularly with their 4-0 demolition of Dynamo Moscow. Vladivostok's defence remains a weak point—conceding 2.0 goals per game over their last five outings—which could be exploited by a Khabarovsk side that has shown they can score in volume. However, Khabarovsk's own defensive inconsistency means Vladivostok's occasional offensive firepower, as shown in their 4-2 win over CSKA Moscow, cannot be discounted.
Prediction
Khabarovsk are the favourite here. They hold a two-point advantage in the standings, play at home, and have demonstrated more consistent attacking output. Vladivostok's defensive fragility—particularly their tendency to concede multiple goals in losses—makes them vulnerable to the hosts' more potent offence. While both teams have shown they can be inconsistent, Khabarovsk's recent high-scoring performances and superior league position give them the edge in this encounter.
A home win for Khabarovsk is the most likely outcome. Expect a fairly competitive match, with the hosts' attacking threat likely to prove decisive against a visiting defence that has looked shaky in recent weeks.
